The WWE United States Championship was originally known as the NWA United States Heavyweight Championship. In 1991 it was renamed World Championship Wrestling (WCW) United States Heavyweight Championship. Then in 2001 when WWF bought out WCW it was changed to WCW United States Championship. At Survivor Series 2001 this belt merged with the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Finally in 2003 it was revived as the WWE United States Championship.
On October 22, 2001 in Kansas City, MO there was a match between Kurt Angle and Rhyno for the United States Championship. On this episode of Raw Kurt Angle won this match and became the United States Champion. The belt at the time was still known as the WCW United States Championship at this time. This was the only time Kurt Angle held this belt.

How many world titles does Kurt angle have 2011?
This is a question many have wanted to know for years now. Mainly because TNA has given him credit for more actual World titles than he has held. If you break it down to actual "World" titles, he has held 12. TNA claims 15. Here's how it goes... World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (WWF/E) WWF/E Championship-Originally the W.W.W.F. World Heavyweight title, then the WWF World Heavyweight title, and now the WWE "Undisputed" Heavyweight championship of the World, or for short, THE WWE championship. Kurt Angle held this title 4 times. WWE World Heavyweight championship-Originally the WCW World Heavyweight title. Kurt Angle has held this title 1 time. WCW World Heavyweight championship. Kurt Angle has held this title 1 time. Total Non-Stop Action (TNA) TNA World Heavyweight championship Kurt Angle has held this title 4 times (as of 01/01/12) National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) NWA World Heavyweight championship Kurt Angle has held this title 1 time. Though both the NWA & TNA refuse to recognize. Still, he won the match, and was awarded the belt. New Japan Pro Wrestling-All titles sanctioned by the International Wrestling Grand Prix (New Japan Pro/IWGP) New Japan IWGP World Heavyweight championship Kurt Angle has held this title 1 time. Collectively, that makes Kurt Angle an actual 12 time World's champion. I'm not sure what TNA counts as the other 3. My guess is his olympic gold medal, and either his 2 NCAA National titles, or 1 NCAA National title and his World title in Amateur wrestling. Either way, it's wrong. To sum up this answer once and for all, Kurt Angle is a 12 time Heavyweight champion of this World.
